Our First Date!

Well as you know John's birthday was on Thursday. I wanted to do something with just John and I, since we hadn't done anything with just us since Baylee has been born. It seems that she consumes us 24/7. Don't get me wrong John and I love being her parents and love all the new things she does, and how she is constantly making us laugh and smile. We love her so much. But I have been feeling like we needed a date and to have some time just the two of us. So I called Jake first to see if the could babysit but Jake was busy with finals so I didn't want to bother him or Maria because she works long days, so I called our good friends the Martins and they were very delighted that I asked them to babysit. So John and I went to a movie and Dinner. I decided that I wanted to take John to this steakhouse in Chandler. It is called the Keg. We got there and didn't realize how spendy of a place it was, but thought hey it is a special night. Boy I think we were glad to have eaten there. It was Dang good! He had the Keg size Prime Rib which was fit for a king. He absolutely loved it. He also had garlic mashed potatoes with and ordered some creamed spinach which was to die for. I had the Filet Mignon. It was really good but not as good as John's and I don't really like Prime Rib all that well. It came with fresh vegetables and a baked potatoe. John said that he thought that was the best meal he had had in a long time. Then we went to a movie, but it wasn't a great movie. It was nice just to have some alone time together and hold hands and talk like we used to. I love you John, thanks for the great date. Also, thanks Marissa, Reagan, Randall and Doug for watching Baylee.

Congrats on your first date out together! It is so crazy how much time a little one consumes. The crazy thing is months can go by before you realize, "hey, we haven't really talked or spent time one on one in a long time". I know understand much better than I used to, the prophets advice to have date night 1 time a week. So, so important!!

I'm so glad that you found time to go out. It really is so important for your relationship to keep those romantic fires burning. Regular date night needs to be a priority! I'm taking house pictures today, so I expect some new Baylee pictures soon!!
